maybe my question is not that understandable. I tried with a normal testform and a testaction (form with some fields like name, firstname, ... and an action that returns the values in a little hello "firstname", ...) now I changed the form action to testmethod and made a testmethod that calls <dtml-var testAction>. so actually it's the same. and this works. but now: when working with plonelocalfolderNG, I saw in the standard given page, that the form action is just: htmlformuploadfile. so I copied a small form in my testform, and used formaction htmlformuploadfile. and all works, he uploads the file to the external folder. but now I tried to move the formaction to the testmethod (<dtml-var testAction> to <dtml-var htmlformuploadfile>) and this doesn't work, I keep getting a keyerror on htmlformuploadfile what am I doing wrong? it's quite urgent Olivier -----Original Message----- From: zope-bounces+olivier.wambacq=naturalsciences.be@zope.org [mailto:zope-bounces+olivier.wambacq=naturalsciences.be@zope.org]On Behalf Of Olivier Wambacq Sent: donderdag 9 maart 2006 8:54 To: zope Subject: [Zope] call htmlformuploadfile from dtml method hello, in plonelocalfolderNG you have the htmlformuploadfile method, that is called in the form action. but I needed to save everything in a db also, so I called a dtml method in the form action. whitch first calls the db-store scripting, and then the htmlformuploadfile. everything is stored well in the db now, but now I don't know how to call the htmlformuploadfile from this script. I tried some things like: <dtml-var htmlformuploadfile> or <dtml-var http://....../htmlformuploadfile> also tried using <dtml-call ... but nothing seems to work, he always says htmlformuploadfile doesn't exist. I tought I just had to call the same thing as in the action argument, but how do I know how to call it when I call it from a dtml method instead? thanks in advance Olivier _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
